Facilitating Change in Vietnam's Secured Transactions: DTN’s Partnership with IFC

Since 2010, DTN has had the privilege of partnering with IFC/World Bank in the NRAST (National Registration Agency Secured Transaction) project, contributing to the effort to modernize secured transactions in Vietnam. In this narrative, we’d like to share DTN’s role in this initiative, acknowledging our part in digitizing the registration system for movable-secured transactions under the Ministry of Justice. The resulting improvements have made the process more accessible and user-friendly for businesses seeking loans.

The Evolution of NRAST

Before our involvement, Vietnam’s secured transaction registration relied on a manual, localized process, requiring physical visits to registration centers in Ha Noi, Ho Chi Minh City, or Da Nang. The system’s limitations led to delays and hindered real-time data access.
